Save Fatherhood, Save the World

a moving video for anyone who has ever had a good father.. perhaps an even more moving video for those whose fathers were broken, or deeply flawed, or not there at all.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edgvske63cyhttp://www.firstthings.com/blogs/theanchoress/2010/08/12/grace-fathers/bts .

Take your Vitamin D, people.
by BurnTheShips inwhat do you lack?
probably vitamin dvitamin d promises to be the most talked-about and written-about supplement of the decade.
while studies continue to refine optimal blood levels and recommended dietary amounts, the fact remains that a huge part of the population from robust newborns to the frail elderly, and many others in between are deficient in this essential nutrient.. .

For Perry: There was no global flood, so stop looking for Noah's Ark
by BurnTheShips inforget about noahs ark; there was no worldwide flood.
many people have contacted me about the recent claims by a group called noahs ark ministries international.1 the evangelical organization claims to have discovered noahs ark.2 i have responded on several occasions to these dubious claims on my blog.3 and still, this group has stood behind their claim,4 insisting that what they have found is real based largely on the belief that because the bible says the flood and the ark are historical, it must be so.
so, instead of addressing their spurious claims yet again, i thought i would approach the issue from a different angle: forget about noahs ark; there was no world-wide flood.. the worldwide flood described in genesis 6-9 is not historical, but rather a combination of at least two flood stories, both of which descended from earlier mesopotamian flood narratives.
